Seller_Software_Program_Checklist Bid B2727446.pdf

This is a seller checklist for the City of Philadelphia Procurement Department's Software Program bid submission process, specifically for Bid B2727446 related to Twilio Messaging services in Pennsylvania. The checklist outlines a twelve-step submission procedure that vendors must follow to complete their quote through the PHLContracts portal. Bidders are required to progress through multiple tabs including General, Items, Questions, Terms & Conditions, Attachments, and Summary sections, with mandatory "Save & Continue" actions at each step to avoid validation errors and ensure proper submission. The process requires vendors to answer all mandatory questions, accept the bid terms and conditions, and download all required attachments before final submission.

The Software Program does not apply the Local Business Entity (LBE) certification preference, though vendors must still answer the LBE question to proceed. All software purchases will be awarded to the City's current software vendors unless otherwise stated in Section A of the bid documents. Vendors are responsible for submitting product literature at the City's request and completing any required attachments related to their quote, including the specification of unit costs and discounts for each listed item in the Items Tab. The checklist emphasizes the importance of reviewing all validation warnings before submission to ensure complete and accurate bid documentation.
